We're chasing butterflies
By the water
Watching aeroplanes
Because you gotta
Inside
Inside everything is wrong
Outside
Ooh, outside
You keep your eyes on the prize
And your head in your hands
Oh, oh
You can't see the wood for the trees
Even when all the leaves
Are gone
Cause you're still chasing butterflies
Watching all the years roll by
You've had all your life
To dream about it
But you never did
A thing about it
Just waste time
Waste time everything is wrong
But you're fine
Ooh, you're fine
You keep your eyes on the prize
And your head in your hands
Oh, oh
You can't see the wood for the trees
Even when all the leaves
Are gone
Cause you're still chasing butterflies
Watching all the years roll by
But we soldier, soldier on
Yeah, we soldier, soldier on
Inside
Inside everything is wrong
But you're fine
Ooh, you're fine
You keep your eyes on the prize
And your head in your hands
Oh, oh
You can't see the wood for the trees
Even when all the leaves are gone
Cause you're still chasing butterflies
Watching all the years roll by
Waiting for your ship to arrive
You're still chasing butterflies
But we soldier, soldier on
